Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

NetherlandsNot all the bed sheets were cotton (maybe this is warmer but was a little tickling as we are allergic)
Very basic but was al we needed for the night. Nice super hot shower. Lovely garden with superb view. We were super happy that the staff gave us a heather so we could dry the inside of our shoes (were sooked after a hike)! Good price

South AfricaIt's safe, it's clean and it has a beautiful view from the top. The staff are friendly and the owner really goes out his way to make sure everyone is satisfied. Even with the power outage and loadshedding every night I was there, he was making a plan with his generator and getting the place to run as smoothly as possible. Really well done to him and his staff

United KingdomThe access road was a bit rough for an ordinary car. Lots of deep potholes.
A fine place to stay in a challenging township. Good security and far enough out of the town to feel safe. The room was perfect. The view and the sunsets amazing. Very friendly, helpful staff.

United StatesWifi didnt reach our room however I bet it reaches most others. We were able to use it outside while enjoying the summer evening.
The staff is amazing! Every single person there was a joy to speak with. The bed is comfortable, the kitchen has a great boiler and refrigerator, and the parking is secure. The location is about 30 minutes from the start of Tugela Falls and this place is much more affordable than the place on the mountain.

United StatesThe staff was not welcoming at all, we booked for an AC room only to find out there are no AC’s in the property. The room was not clean and it it had a couples motel vibe, which made us gross out during our sleep and shower.
